Undo Sam Paid Postal Rill for 400,000 Pounds. The Government Printing Office was an important factor in the re cent Presidential campaign. This institution turned out for the Re publican and Democratic parties 7,418,700 copies of speeches de- 1 livercd in Congress, surpassing all I previous records by 3,000,000 ! copies. The total weight of cam paign speeches printed since the beginning of the Sixtieth Congress ; exceeds 400,000 pounds, or about 14 carloads. Ihe printed sheets A GOOD SUGGESTION. Last Sunday's number ot the Lutheran, the little paper published weekly by the Lutheran church of this town, Rev. J. K. Myers, editor, contained the following item among other good things. It is equally as applicable to par ents in every other church as in the Lutheran. It says: "Parents, did it ever occur to you to thank those who teach your children in the Sunday School ? Do you ever stop to think how much is being done for your children by faithful teachers who never think of pay? It is something to think about and to be thankful for. Where outside of the church would you find anything of the kind? You ought to show your apprecia tion by sending your children reg ularly, and in good time. You ought to speak well of the teacher, not criticise before your children. And certainly you ought to respond to.the few calls which the school makes in the way of of ferings. I tell you, parents, you arc getting a whole lot in the Sun day School for almost nothing. You ought to appreciate it and like wise those who teach and direct in it, much more th in you do."

Hang out the flcgs! New Amusement Hall at Danville. Achenbach and Moore, of thi town, who tor several years past have successfully catered to the pleasure-seeking public in various places, have transformed the bowl ing alley building on Mahoning street, Danville, into an amusement hall known as the New Family 1 heatre. For several weeks the old bowl ing alley structure has been under going extensive alterations, which included the installation of a com plete miniature theatre with an ele vated stage, scenery, imitation box es, foot lights, a sloping floor and all the accessories. The building has a capacity of about 30c people. The opening took place last night. Mr. Stonesifer, formerly with the Bijou here, has been en gaged to sing the illustrated songs. Prof. Chas. P.

Doctor Relieved Pressure on Optic and Restored Sight. Ner.e A New Gold Piece. The mints at Philadelphia, San Francisco aud Denver have begun coining a new five dollar gold piece struck on a different plan from any heretofore coined in the world. It follows an idea expressed to Presi dent Roosevelt by Dr. William Sturgis Bigelow, of Boston, that to permit the coins being piled to a uniform height that a high or strong relief might be obtained by de pressing the design below the field or face of the coin, instead of rais ing it above as usual in all coinage operations. 1 his would provide a flat field and a vnitorm tliickn ss, the flat surface taking the wear and protecting the relief, the shape of the depression following the out line of the rebel. Ihe same design will be used on the two and a half dollar pieces, and will hear the "In God We Trust" motto. While never applied to coins, the counter sinking relief is one of the oldest forms of sculpture in stone. By a most unusual operation per formed by Dr. J. Thornton Schell at Philadelphia, the eyesight of J. it. Larter, who was almost totally blind, has been restored. Carter was taken to the hospital a fort night ago suffering with total loss of vision iu one eye and could bare ly detect beams of light in the other. Diagnosing the case as one of undue pressure upon the optic nerve, Dr. Schell took a bold step which has but few parallels iu sur gical literature. He first exposed the braiu by removing two larce buttons of bone from the base of the skull, and then a quantity of cerebro-spinal fluid was withdrawn. This relieved the pressure 011 the optic nerve, with the concurrent result that vision was restored to both eyes. There ia said to be no similar case on record.

Mr. Hearst is now definitely de prived of his martyr s crown, for which he has substituted a fool's can. He cannot even claii to have defeated Bryan and Chanter: for the little fringe ol votes which his personally conducted Independence party cast was absolutely negligible in the large result. This is a terri ble blow not only to an impudent charlatan, but to all his boasting about the irresistible political power of his newspapers. lie! and his hirelings have talked as if, when The Journal spoke, 5,000,000 readers said amen, and 1,000,000 voters lushed to record their ap proval at the polls. That humbug is now exploded. When even the most blatant journalism sets itself against the popular stream, it is swept away with other rotten veg etables. The true comment on Hearst's further political pre en sions can best be conveyed to him in language of the kind he uses, aud which has been heard within the p.ist few w-reks from hundreds of his former followers: "Hearst? Aw, he's a dead one." New York Evening Pest. Well-Kept Hands. Two bottles shculd be kept in a handy place in the kitchen, one containing five parts of lemon juice to one of alcohol, the other one fourth ounce of cum tragacauth added to a pint of rain-water which has stood three days, then one ounce each of alcohol, glycerine and witch hazel, also a very little good perfume. After washing dish es, preparing vegetables or doing any rough kitchen work, apply a little of the lemon juice, then the other lotion, and iu a moment the hands are dry, soft and very smooth. All stains disappear quick ly and the nails are cleaned easily, says The Housekeeper, This process repeated a few times each day will repay any housekeeper for the slight trouble. The expense of these preparations is comparatively nothing. Trespass Notices. Card sigis '"No Trespassing" fori sale at this office. They are print ed in accordance with the late act ' of 1903.
